Because the standard Command Line Interface to Athenaeum is limited to Linux and requires local installation of Athenaeum, WebStart Portable Athenaeum Command Line Client has been created. It works on any platform and is installed (and updated) automatically. The only requirement is the availability of Java (1.6+) on local machine.

Commands are written to the lower window. The same window shows direct command feedback. The upper window shows command results. Hyperlinks can lead to new pages or initiate new actions. All new results appear on new tabs in upper window. Most tabs have remove and save mini-buttons.

All commands are executed on the currently selected Worker via currently selected Manager. This selection is visible on the command prompt and can be changed by setting worker and manager variables.
